Looking at these panels and Tess and Ben’s interactions, a little voice in the back of my head keeps chanting “You two are going to date. You two make out on a fence post. You two are going to date. You two make out on a fence post…”

I remember Tess mentioning how she was sick, but I never imagined her being THAT sick! Poor Tess!! I am so glad she recovered from whatever it was. I guess she needed that ray of sunshine — Ben — in her life (and his drooly dog, too, of course). ^_^
